Feaster may have screwed the pooch on a trade or two, or a singular first round draft pick (at this stage, who wouldn't rather have Maatta + Sieloff than Jankowski + Sieloff?), but I think he deserves a lot of praise for not only taking us into this "new era", but doing it on the right foot and effectively rebuilding an entire prospect pool in 2 1/2 years (May 18th 2011 to December 28th 2013).
I can't help but laugh at Torts. If there were ever a coach being shown by the hockey world that your career is over - look no further than him. Brad Richards, heck, his entire team in New York effectively wouldn't play for him anymore, and he lost his gig in the Big Apple. Now, one year later? He took a team with high expectations and helped drive them into the bottom of the standings while making a mockery of his entire organization. There's no way Trevor Linden can move forward with Torts in place - not if he actually intends on addressing the numerous things wrong with that team.
